       9 ) The device of  claim 1  wherein, the sanitation system comprises,
 a container adapter section, the container adapted section adapted to couple to the at least one tube; and   a solution container adapted to release cleaning solution into the water.   
   
   
       10 ) A method of cleaning a jetted fluid system using the device of  claim 1  comprising,
 sending a fluid into the inlet port;   placing a cleaning solution into the fluid;   creating a fluid-solution mixture;   ejecting the mixture from the fluid outlet port into a jetted system intake port; and   cleaning at least one of a jetted fluid system pipes, tubes and jets.   
   
   
       11 ) A method of cleaning jetted fluid systems comprising,
 coupling a device fluid inlet port to a faucet;   coupling a device fluid outlet port to a water jet system intake port;   drawing water from the faucet into the inlet port;   adding a cleaning solution to the water to create a mixture;   ejecting the mixture from the fluid outlet port to the water jet intake port;   powering on the water jet system;   cleaning at least one of jet tubes, pipes and jets with the mixture;   ejecting the mixture from the jets; and   allowing the mixture to travel down the drain.   
   
   
       12 ) The method of  claim 11  wherein said coupling a device fluid inlet port to a faucet comprises,
 inserting a jetted bathtub faucet into a fluid inlet port conduit bore;   wrapping a fluid inlet port strap around the conduit;   decreasing the conduit bore diameter; and   securing the strap in a coupling position.   
   
   
       13 ) The method of  claim 11  wherein, said adding a cleaning solution to the water comprises,
 receiving the water into a sanitation system, the sanitation system comprising,
 a solution container, 
 a container adapter; and 
   sending cleaning solution through a venturi valve.   
   
   
       14 ) The method of  claim 11  further including, coupling the outlet port proximate the jet water intake port by using an outlet port suction portion. 
   
   
       15 ) The method of  claim 11  wherein, said cleaning at least one of the jet tubes, pipes, and jets comprises,
 flowing a mixture of water and Vital Oxide™ along at least one of an inner surface of the jet tubes, pipes, and jets, and wherein, the at least one of jet tubes, pipes and jets have at least one of bacteria, mold, and mildew adhered to the inner surface; and   substantially removing the one of bacteria, mold and mildew from the inner surface; and   impeding growth of the one of bacteria, mold and mildew.
